10 Potted Trees that are Easy to Grow

If you have little outdoor space, potted trees are your best friend. They enhance your terrace and balcony area to make it look more like a garden.

Do you know that potted trees can provide you with fruit as well? Yes, they can.

If you plant a fig or a lemon tree, they would give you its fruits in a pot too.

Potted plants act as striking focal points either on the patio or on either side of an entryway if you have larger space. 

There are however two points for you to consider when it comes to planting trees. You need to keep in mind the weather of your city and the light exposure and moisture on the particular site where you’re thinking of placing the tree. 

Read on for the top 10 trees that can be easily planted, without much effort.

10 Potted That You Will Love Growing

I know that growing trees in pots is difficult. I have spent thousands trying to make them grow, after a couple of months, or sometimes more, they all used to die. So, I learnt a little gardening the harder way. By failing at it to be precise.

Here I am sharing my knowledge for you to benefit. Choose from among these 10 potted trees and you will never regret.

1. Citrus 

Citrus plants when planted in large containers make for pretty accents on the patios. You can choose any kind of citrus from lemons and limes to kumquats and tangerines.

Remember that Citrus plants are frost-tender, so when the climate is more on the chilly side, make sure to bring the plants inside where they get enough sunlight. 

Indoor Potted Trees

Citrus plants can grow nitrogen-deficient and you can know this by observing the leaves. If the leaves turn yellow, it means that the plant is nitrogen deficient. For the productive growth of the plant, you can supplement watering with weekly diluted organic fertilizer. 

Appropriate climate: Maximum to 25° Fahrenheit or minus 3.9° Celsius. Bring the plant indoors during winters. 

Water requirement: Moderate 

Light requirement: Full size

Mature size: Varies by species, dwarf citruses are appropriate for containers.

2. Conifers 

Conifers like pine, juniper, fir, and Cypress trees serve as attractive focal points on patios year-round. Most of the conifer plants thrive in full sun and require well-draining soil in the container. 

What’s best is you can look for conifers that are slow-growing and dwarf so that they are suitable for containers. For example, the ‘Wilma Goldcrest’ Monterey cypress, when planted in a container, grows only 3-feet tall. 

Appropriate climate: Hardiness varies by species; many fall in zones 3 to 8

Water requirement: Moderate

Light requirement: Full sun

Mature size: Varies by species; dwarf varieties are suitable for containers

3. Edible Fig 

Fig trees are a prized possession in Mediterranean courtyards. They are year-round attractive with their large, loved leaves providing shade, in summer and fall. Not to mention, they also bear tasty fruits. 

As long as they have plenty of watering and sunlight, they’ll grow well. But expect them to stay smaller and bear lesser fruits than those planted in the garden. 

Figs that are planted in long and hot summers, and provided with plenty of water bear the sweetest and most delicious fruits. 

Appropriate climate: Hardy to 5° Fahrenheit or minus 15° Celsius. 

Water requirement: Moderate

Light requirement: Full sun

Mature size: up to 25 feet tall and wide, can be easily kept in a container with pruning.

Water requirement: Very Low

Light requirement: Full sun 

Mature size: Varies by species, can be maintained in a container with pruning

Privet makes wonderful topiary plants whether planted in containers or the ground. For cottage-style gardens, you can try to plant them in pots trimmed into pyramids or globes.

Appropriate climate: Hardy to minus 25 degrees Fahrenheit, or minus 31.7 degrees Celsius.

Top 8 Tips to Take Care of Potted Trees

1. Find the right place

To ensure that the tree thrives in your home is to choose a tree that suits the weather, sunlight, etc for proper growth. You need to know which spots will work. Luckily, it’s easy to move a potted plant. 

2. Choose dwarf varieties 

If available, you can always go for dwarf varieties because they’ll fit best in containers and will be easier to maintain. You won’t have to worry about its growth (getting way too much taller for the given space.) 

3. Start with a large container

When you bring a potted tree home from the nursery, re-pot it into a larger container, aiming for a soil depth of 2-3 feet. Make sure that the container has a drainage hole. 

4. Watering

Trees planted in containers are more prone to getting dried up than those in the ground. So you need to ensure that the plant is getting consistent watering (depending on its requirement). You can use a drip irrigation system as well. 

5. Fertilizing 

The trees that stay planted in the same soil and container for a longer duration, do not get the required nutrients. This is a common issue with Citruses because they quickly become nitrogen deficient. Make sure to regularly fertilize the soil with organic fertilizers. 

6. Rotating

If you’re placing the plant against a wall, likely, the other part that doesn’t face the sun won’t get enough sunlight. Sunlight is essential for the overall growth of the plant, so you can always rotate the pot every once in a while. 

7. Re-potting 

If a plant has been in the same pot for years now and is showing signs of stress (like discoloration), it’s probably time to report. Choose a container that is wider and taller than this one. Prune the roots and change the soil as well. 

8. Planting out 

If a tree has been in a container for years and is starting to outgrow the container or the patio size, it’s time to plant it in the garden. You can plant it in the ground anytime, except when the temperatures are extremely cold or hot. Choose an appropriate spot with the right light exposure, and where it will have plenty of space to mature in size.

2.Amp up your corners with handicrafts

Corners play a more important role in your house than you might give them credit for. It is amping up these little spaces that will have a big impact on the overall ambiance of your house.

And what is the best way to bring some ethnicity to these empty corners? Well, that would be through some handicrafts!

If you do not wish to make any major changes to your overall home decor but still wish to bring some ethnicity to it, this is your best option.

If ethnic home decor is what is in your mind then a traditional cabinet is the epitome of it. Or if you have any heirloom furniture pieces, they can be of great use here.

If you do not wish to buy any large wood carved cabinets, small items like stools, tables or even trays can do the job for you.

When talking about ethnic interior design, use soft furnishings made of fabrics with ethnic prints or patterns. 

Just like its handicrafts, India is also known for its amazing fabrics. So, here we are talking about your bedsheets and other bedding items, curtains etc.

7.Ethnic Ottomans

Another new trend in ethnic home decor is to use ottomans. If you want to add some extra seating to your house without actually changing any of your old furniture, go for ottomans.

If you aren’t sure where to begin, a wall is a great place to start. Here are some wall decorating ideas that you may like.

1. The Walls Can’t go Empty

Just like the living room, wall hangings go extremely well on bedroom walls too. If you have an overall classy and elegant aesthetic, a wall hanging will just add more charm to it. Even if you have a casual aesthetic, wall hangings make a great addition to it.

A beautiful floral hanging or one with natural accents would go perfectly well on the wall behind your bed or on the one opposite it. 

If you love luxurious decor that gives a posh look, handcrafted wall hangings are the best idea. Darker colored wall hangings would complement your bedroom walls amazingly well. 

You can also be a little creative here and use handmade rugs or carpets and hang them as wall hangings.

2. Have a Gallery Wall

If you are still looking for wall decor ideas, you can also go for a gallery wall. A gallery wall is basically a wall that is filled with pictures/ frames.

For a gallery wall, you can either put up your own family pictures on the wall or decide a theme and select the pictures accordingly. For this wall art idea, you can use pictures/ frames of various sizes so that they complement each other well.

A gallery wall will add lots of personality to your bedroom.

3. Install Shelves

Installing shelves on your bedroom walls is also one of the best wall decor ideas. You can use these shelves to showcase your impressive book collection or even your most cherished art pieces.

Pro Tip: If you are fond of handicrafts, there is nothing like paper mache items to amp up those shelves!

4. Go for a wallpaper

If you want to go for something simple, go for a wallpaper. A wallpaper is a low-risk wall decor idea that still looks pretty great.

Choose a wallpaper that goes well with the color scheme of the rest of your bedroom and your wall is sure to stand out beautifully.

You can paint their favorite cartoon character, animal or even the world map. The possibilities here are truly endless and you can unleash your creative side to the utmost level.

Just put up an animal or bird wall hanging on their wall. It is creative, easy and also very fun to look at.

A quirky wall hanging will add a beautiful edge to any children’s room and make it look amazing. It is also a pretty unique idea as compared to other children’s bedroom wall art ideas. You can also go for multiple wall hangings on the same or different walls to create a beautiful design on the walls.

Shelves aren’t just great for storing toys and other children’s stuff but they also make for great wall decorating ideas.

You can just install a few of them on plain or wallpapered or even painted walls and then doll these shelves up with beautiful decor pieces. Again, decorative items like paper mache would make a perfect addition to your shelves.

Essentials for Creating a Welcoming Guest Room Decor

Essentials for Creating a Welcoming Guest Room Decor

Got a spare bedroom you’d like to turn into a cozy guest room?

Want to amplify your guest room decor?

Here are a few simple tips to help you turn that room into a welcoming, comfortable space for your guests:

Start By De-cluttering

One of the first things you probably need to do is get a de-cluttering process started.

Is all of your kids’ childhood stuff out of their old room? If not, start there (if you haven’t already!).

Kashmirica - Shop

Box up things to send with your children to their new adult homes, or carve out some space for safekeeping of the items you just can’t part with. Your future guests will be appreciative, and your children may secretly thank you for your efforts, as well.

Even if your spare room was never a child’s bedroom, it’s likely to have been used as a catch-all storage space – in which case, de-cluttering will still be a necessary initial task for you to tackle.

Cluttered Bedroom

If you’re like a lot of families, your spare bedroom didn’t start out as a spare bedroom. Perhaps your children have grown up and left the nest, and you’re ready to re-purpose the room for receiving guests. That is why you are seeking out some guest room decor tips. 

Create a Space That is Designed For Guests with Some Awesome Room Decor 

A guest room doesn’t need to be large, and it doesn’t even have to be a bedroom dedicated to guests only. If your child has only partly left the nest (away at college, for example), this can still be their bedroom when they come home; you don’t have to banish your kids to have guest-friendly space!

Guest room decor is no special than any other bedroom decor. Saying that there will always be some good to have settings that make your guest room decor all the more wonderful. 

You just need to start by considering how somebody else might feel staying in the room. As long as someone has enough room to move around, fresh bedding, and a place for their bag, they’ll feel welcome.

If there’s enough space, a bench or a folding luggage rack is a great feature to add. It will make your guests feel more welcome, and it also means they’ll be less likely to toss their suitcase or bag on the bed (after all, who knows where that suitcase has been?).

Buy two of those folding racks if you’re shopping. That way, if a couple shares the room, they’ll each have a place for their own bag. Take some mental notes from your favorite hotel rooms.

A comfortable chair and a desk would be nice to add, but only if you have plenty of space. And if you still need to use part of the room for storage (or a home office, or hobby space, or whatever), put up a dividing screen to hide the boxes, supplies, or whatever else you still keep in the room.

Provide Extra Amenities For Guests

At a minimum, provide an extra blanket at the foot of the bed or in the closet, a nightstand with a lamp, an extension cord for convenient charging of phones and computers, and a card with the wifi password. I like to think about what someone might ask for, and try to set it out before they ask.

A tray with some bottled water and prepackaged snacks (such as dried fruit and nuts) is a nice touch that your visitors are sure to appreciate.

The Guest Bathroom

In the bathroom, provide plenty of towels, a clean bath mat, nightlight, and basket of travel-size toiletries in case someone forgets something. Have extra toilet paper handy, and perhaps keep a small sewing kit and extra cleaning supplies in an easily-found spot. Also, make sure the bathroom is clean before your guests arrive!

This might not be a tip for guest room decor per se, but it will be essential to allow your guest a comfortable stay. 

Other Special Touches

Depending on your space and budget, it’s nice to include a full-size mirror in the bedroom. This makes it more convenient for one guest to be able to use for personal grooming or dressing, in the event that their partner has the bathroom tied up.

In terms of bedroom lighting, floor lamps and desk lamps create a warmer, more inviting feel than overhead lighting. A nice finishing touch for your guest room is to choose the perfect bedding that is both stylish and comfy.

Would it not be awesome to deck up your guest room decor with some mind-blowing silken rugs from Kashmir?

Invest in Some Luxury Bedding 

Look for a brand or a designer with a passion for design and comfort. Look for items that are all about redefining  how you feel in bed. Brands and people who are fascinated with the concepts of comfort and luxury help creating products that reinvent the ultimate sleep experience.

This helps your home feel like a cozy, personal sanctuary.  Visit a store or a website to find a great selection of luxury bedding sets, including sheets, comforters, blankets, duvet covers, pillows, shams and home décor items, and more. One such brand that I may recommend is Jennifer Adams.  

Over to You 

Don’t look at the budgets if you really are sure about giving your guests an ultimate comfort stay. Do all that I have mentioned to give your guest room decor an ultimate lift.
